A true story about how you'd have to travel to another dimension to find a teenager who thinks it's cool that her dad's in a rock band.

lyrics

I'll try to take a breath and see if I can focus on you.
This room is spinning hard, and I'm not sure I'll see this one through.
You say your world's become so tight there isn't room for you?
Just listen close, and I will give you something fast and true:

Put it behind you
No one owns you
I'm pulling for you
Emilie.

So Mom's got way too much to say about the things that you do
And Dad is working all the time like there's no time for you.
This may be kinda hard to swallow, but it means they love you.
And I'm a lot like him, so I'm the guy you'd wanna talk to. [wink]

Put it behind you
No one owns you
I'm pulling for you
Emilie.

So now the kids at school are putting you through thick and thin
And everybody's so concerned for you it makes your head spin
Just get your 20 minutes EVERY DAY for practice in
And don't jump in too quick because you sense an easy win

Put it behind you
No one owns you
I'm pulling for you
Emilie.

THE POWER & THE GLORY/Bill Mallonee & Vigilantes of Love (2011)
by Bill Mallonee

Come for the '70s Dodge pickup on the cover. Stay for Americana/Folk music played like rock-n-roll (a winning formula if there ever was one). THE GHOSTS THAT I RUN WITH is nothing short of AWESOME. Andy Smash & the Rust Belt Hotrods
